RE: Error message procedure program

Try adding the VALUE keyword to the parameter definition.

        D  ErrorMsg                    510A   VALUE

Subject:        Error message procedure program

HI everyone,

            I am having a problem passing an error message in to a
procedure. Here is the code:

 

PC0901CLMS is a CL program that excepts a 510A error message and sends it to
the user that is 

currently signed on.

 

D #Error          PR                  ExtPgm('PC0901CLMS')

D  ErrorMsg                    510A

 

 

The call..

#Error('Test'); 

 

If I do it this way I get an error message on compile that "Parameter 1 is
not valid as a 

parameter passed by reference".

 

I want to do it the way above so that I can insert whatever text I want to
without having to create a definition like

 

D ErrorMsg1            S              510   Inz('This is a test message')

 

Is this possible?
